1. Loading it
Because the venue is not in the filename,
only one venue can occupy that folder at a time.
Swap the file when you want to test a different one. We know this is awkward and it is on our
list to fix.
1) Put the file in your data folder under
record/crypto/1m/ — create the folder if it is not there.
2) Rename it to
crypto_1m_20260812.db. The app reads the asset class from the folder and the date from
the filename; the venue is not part of either.
3) Open Backtest. The date shows up in the available-data list and you can run against it.
2. What this is
Our own recording, captured from Coinbase's public market data feed by our recorder in Tokyo.
Nothing here comes from a paid data vendor. One day at one-minute resolution is a sample for
evaluating the software. It is not a data product, and it is not a substitute for recording your
own. Serious research wants more days than this and the one-second frame.
Coinbase quotes in USD rather than a stablecoin, so prices line up with the spot references most people already watch. Depth is thinner than the perpetual venues on anything outside the majors — worth seeing before you assume a fill.
If a download looks short, check the SHA-256 shown next to the file. A truncated database opens
as a corrupt file rather than failing loudly.
